Episode Details

The New York Mets, in a strategic move to bolster their roster, traded for Freddy Peralta, Tobias Myers, and Luis Robert Junior, leading to the designation of pitcher Cooper Criswell for assignment. Despite showing potential, Criswell, a 29-year-old right-hander with a unique delivery, finds himself back on waivers after being claimed by the Mets earlier this offseason. With a career ERA of 4.48, Criswell has pitched for several teams, including the Angels, Rays, and Red Sox. In 2021, he had a solid 3.57 ERA in the majors and an impressive 3.70 ERA in Triple-A. If he clears waivers, Criswell could remain in the Mets system as depth, but another team might claim him outright, highlighting the harsh reality of roster crunch time in baseball.
